Yeah, I saw this a few days ago. Also, to record in HD, you'd need a HD Slingbox or something else that records in HD :p

I don't get the quality looks exactly the same to me, without the HQ format. Plus it takes forever for the video to buffer...what the heck

lol Upscaling your original to 1280x720 is not HD, you need to record it from an HD source with HD inputs.

Also billy, your video is only showing up as normal MP4 format, not 720p.
